Bug#1014221: bullseye-pu:package procmail/3.22-26+deb11u1
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: bullseye
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu
Dear release managers: There was a NULL pointer dereference fix in
procmail which I've just applied to bullseye as well. There is no CVE
for this, but nevertheless it's the type of bug I don't want to see in
stable.
The patch was taken from the author's git repository and it has been
working in testing/unstable for several months now.
The debdiff is attached.
(I will also try to upload for buster before its final release)
Thanks.
